No, you cannot mix them... vbox will only run on metal.
But you should be able to boot the vdi on a Solaris dom0.
(tap:vdisk:/path/to/disk.vdi)
also can vdiskadm import /path/to/disk.vdi /path/to/disk0
if you want disk snapshots, etc (vdiskadm help or man vdiskadm)
Where did you download Comms Suite 6u1 from? Depending on how
it was built, it might even be easy to convert to a PV guest..
